Storyline Festival

Last week Pt England School's Extension group went to the Storyline Festival.  The Storyline Festival was where people read us there own stories and tell us why they made and what they thought about it.  The people that told there story's names were  Juliette Mclver, Cath Mayo, Jill MacGregor, Paula Green.  

My favourite author was Cath Mayo. Cath Mayo was really interesting showing some pictures of her in Greece walking through some dark and frightening caves and also showed us the dagger that she bought from Greece. Cath Mayo is from Auckland,New Zealand, and is the author of 4 books called Murder at Mykenai, The Bow, Background and also The Greek Bronze Age.   

Friends Writing Test

WALT: explain to your reader what being a good friend means

What is a friend? A friend is someone who always has your back when it gets hard, a friend is a person who will always take care of you.  Friends will stand up for you if people are picking on you or bullying you

We have friends because if we didn't the world wouldn't be a happy for me or you. If we didn't have other people to be friends with we would be lonely. We all would have nobody to talk or listen to and wouldn't that just be boring?

Some best friends are like family because you might have grown up with them or seen them every day of your life. People think just because you're the opposite gender you can't be friends, But infact one of my best friends is a girl and i’ve been friends with her ever since I was in nappies. I actually think of friends as brothers and sisters.

How could I be a friend? You could watch out for them make sure they're not getting picked on, you could also talk to them make sure everythings alright. But basically all the things i've just said is how you could be a friend.  

Life without friends would be a disaster and I would be very sad. I hope you have learnt a lot about how to be a great friend. I think i've learnt a lot from writing and thank you for reading.

What Do Capitals Mean

WALT: Write an explanation telling people what capital letters are and when you use them in writing.

Capital letters are bigger than the normal letter like Tt there both the same but one is bigger. They can be known as capitals/big letters and uppercase. The reason you can tell its a capital is because it reaches the upper line.

You use something like an I by itself because its always supposed to be a capital. But something I don’t get is why is I a capital and why a is not well i’ll tell you. It is because I is a pronoun and a is preferred to a definite article.  

Geographical places are like a country,city or a town. Geographical places always have to start with a Capital. If you don't know what Geographical places are well for example Mcdonald's has to have capitals because its a Geographical place.

A capital can also come up after a full stop, question mark, exclamation mark or a person speaking. You might be wondering “ Why do we use capitals ” because it makes our sentences make sense. An Example “ I had a great day” see how it starts with a capital.     

For the last paragraph I have chosen to talk about the dates. You also use capitals for Dates. For example February and Monday and another is religious holidays. 

I've learnt a lot about capitals and how to use them and hopefully I will use them properly in my writing. 

This is how I rated my 4th paragraph if you don't agree then leave a comment leaving your feedback so I know what to work on
